These 100W Power Banks Just Got Massive Discounts in the Early Memorial Day Sales at Amazon
With the Nintendo Switch 2 just weeks away, now’s a good time to think about keeping your gadgets powered up, especially if you’re planning to game on the go this summer. Thankfully, two high-powered USB-C chargers from Baseus and INIU have just dropped to their lowest prices in months as part of Amazon’s early Memorial Day sales.Right now, both the Baseus 145W Power Bank and the INIU 25000mAh 100W Power Bank are on sale. They’re easily two of the best-value portable chargers available for under $50.Both chargers support over 100W USB-C PD fast charging, which makes them perfect for topping up a wide range of devices like the Steam Deck, MacBook, or the upcoming Switch 2. The Baseus model even offers up to 145W total output, which is enough to charge your laptop and console at the same time. But, it is restricted to Prime Members only, so I thought I'd include a decent alternative as well.I own the alternative choice, the INIU power bank, myself, and I highly recommend picking it up for charging portable gaming devices. It's compact enough to toss in a carry-on, and powerful enough to handle multi-device charging without slowing down. Nintendo says the Switch 2 will last a minimum of two hours while running demanding games. That’s fine for a short commute, but if you’re flying or spending a day away from an outlet, an external power bank is essential.These aren’t Switch-specific accessories, but they’re fully compatible and likely a better value than the more niche options that will launch after the Switch 2 arrives. Some third-party accessory makers are already teasing magnetic chargers or special clip-on cases that work with the Switch 2’s updated size. If you want a look at what’s coming, check out our guide to the best power banks for Switch 2.In the meantime, these Memorial Day deals are a great opportunity to grab a versatile, high-powered charger that’s built to last. Whether you’re prepping for the Switch 2 launch or just want a reliable battery pack for travel, this is a smart pickup.Robert Anderson is a deals expert and Senior Commerce Editor, for IGN.
